Hi everyone, I posted this on /r/androiddev<http://www.reddit.com/r/androiddev/comments/wxtv2/hostname_in_http_request_replaced_by/>earlier, but I think this group may be more helpful.
I have an app that does HTTP *requests to some web service (hostname: andidogs.dyndns.org)*. Sometimes, when these requests fail I get the error "UnknownHostException: andidogs.facebook.com" or similar. Since I created this app in four different variants (separately with four different cross-platform frameworks for my thesis), and this issue already occurred with two of them, I'm quite sure this has something to do with Android's SDK or system. No clue where this is coming from. Do you have any ideas? I don't use anything Facebook-related in the app of course. Some diagnostics: - *This happens quite rarely, until now I had this issue with two variants of the app (native Android SDK, and Titanium framework, both using the same underlying Java methods for networking)* - The request actually goes to xyz.facebook.com which does not exist - "getprop net.dns1" commands gives me 192.168.15.1, my local router's IP (correct) - AVG Antivirus didn't find anything on my phone (Huawei Ideos X3, I have no other Android device for testing) - Never occurred on emulator - Don't know how to get DNS cache content -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Security Discussions" group.
